Win10 + Nvidia GeForce Go 7600??

[WolfsburgEd]

I have acquired an old laptop - an Acer Aspire 5680 which was running Vista so V E R Y slow.

I've upgraded it to 4GB RAM and have put a fresh SSD in it with Win10 but the GPU only takes the generic Microsoft driver.

The display is large and it will not allow connection to a monitor / display.

Its Win10 64 bit that I installed - it was 32bit Vista before so it this saying that something in the build wont accept 64 bit and I should start again and reinstall as Win10 32 bit??

Its only going to be a machine for the kids to browse the net for homework and to use MS Office plus some Kodi viewing for myself connected to a TV in the garage from time to time.

I am working on the assumption that this is a built in gpu and that there is no scope to add in an additional separate GPU to the mobo (I've no experience with laptops).

The machine CPU is a Core Duo2 T5600 1.83Ghz 677mhz.

Right, so an evening spent trawling threads and it would seem that I would be ok reverting to any OS prior to W10.

Im going to try 7 64bit as I have that already and if that seems ok then I will get a copy of 8.1 64bit as I see some threads where individuals have upgraded from 8.1 to 10 and the driver failed then.

Any additional comments welcome
